This includes helping patients and families to cope with this situation, while ensuring the maximum level of comfort.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Purpose<\/jats:title>\n The aim of this study was to explore the perspective of expert nurses on the needs and hospital care of people requiring an amputation due to DFS.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Method<\/jats:title>\n This was a qualitative multicenter study involving 8 hospitals in Spain and Portugal. In-depth interviews with expert nurses were transcribed verbatim to enable content analysis.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Twenty-four expert nurses were interviewed about their knowledge and experience of treating patients with diabetic foot disease. Two themes emerged from the qualitative analysis: (1) poor self-care and the disease trajectory, and (2) effective hospital care.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n The results of this study highlight the key role that expert nurses play in the care of patients with DFS. Expert nurses considered that amputation leaves the individual physically and psychologically vulnerable, especially upon discharge from hospital. It is therefore essential to provide these patients with comprehensive and multidisciplinary care that includes emotional support.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/nur.0000000000000519","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,4,6]],"date-time":"2020-04-06T18:30:07Z","timestamp":1586197807000},"page":"107-115","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Nurses' Perspective of Treating Patients With an Amputation Due to Diabetic Foot Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Isabel","family":"Font-Jimenez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Maria Sagrario","family":"Acebedo-Uridales","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Maria Jesus","family":"Aguaron-Garcia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Maria Rui","family":"De Sousa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Lourdes","family":"Rubio-Rico","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"suppl 1","key":"bib1-20230925","first-page":"225","article-title":"Practical guidelines on the management and prevention of the diabetic foot 2011","volume":"28","year":"2012","journal-title":"Diabetes Metab Res Rev"},{"issue":"10","key":"bib2-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2252","DOI":"10.2337\/dc06-0926","article-title":"Mortality and hospitalization in patients after amputation: a comparison between patients with and without diabetes","volume":"29","year":"2006","journal-title":"Diabetes Care"},{"issue":"2","key":"bib3-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"217","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.293.2.217","article-title":"Preventing foot ulcers in patients with diabetes","volume":"293","year":"2005","journal-title":"JAMA"},{"key":"bib4-20230925","article-title":"Incidence of re-amputation following partial first ray amputation associated with diabetes mellitus and peripheral sensory neuropathy: a systematic review","volume":"3","year":"2012","journal-title":"Diabet Foot Ankle"},{"issue":"6","key":"bib5-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"434","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pcd.2016.04.001","article-title":"Retrospective study of the evolution of the incidence of non-traumatic lower-extremity amputations (2007-2013) and risk factors of reamputation","volume":"10","year":"2016","journal-title":"Prim Care Diabetes"},{"issue":"8","key":"bib6-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"773","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1464-5491.2009.02770.x","article-title":"Decreasing amputation rates in patients with diabetes-a population-based study","volume":"26","year":"2009","journal-title":"Diabet Med"},{"issue":"24","key":"bib7-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2367","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra1615439","article-title":"Diabetic foot ulcers and their recurrence","volume":"376","year":"2017","journal-title":"N Engl J Med"},{"issue":"1","key":"bib8-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"220","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jvs.2013.08.003","article-title":"The Society for Vascular Surgery Lower Extremity Threatened Limb Classification System: risk stratification based on wound, ischemia, and foot infection (WIfI)","volume":"59","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Vasc Surg"},{"issue":"1","key":"bib9-20230925","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"138","DOI":"10.1186\/s12933-018-0781-1","article-title":"Lower extremity arterial disease in patients with diabetes: a contemporary narrative review","volume":"17","year":"2018","journal-title":"Cardiovasc Diabetol"},{"issue":"suppl 1","key":"bib10-20230925","first-page":"S105","article-title":"10.
